Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment have announced the new season of Apex Legends presented with a trailer. It’s called “Upheaval” and starts on May 7th. The press release provides an overview of the contents:
- New Legend: Alter – Players can break the rules with Alter, the epitome of discontinuity.
- Her passive ability, Gift of the Portal, drops an item from distant Death Chests and is great for weapon swapping or a surprise shield battery.
- Alter’s tactical ability, Void Passage, creates a portal that opens a passageway to send enemies back to the respawn chamber or provide a quick escape.
- Activating Alter’s ultimate ability, Void Nexus, places a device that anyone on her team can use to open a one-way portal back to the location.
- Solos Takeover – Players will fight in Solos Takeover, replacing the Duos at the start of the season. Here every legend is on its own.
- Ruined Moon in Ruins – A lunar nightmare becomes reality when Olympus crashes into Cleo’s Stasis Node, reshaping the battlefield with new POIs and a reworked map, perfect for wreaking havoc.
- Apex Artifacts – Legends can customize each variant’s theme, power source, and more with exotic shards. By mixing and matching the shards, players can create their own calling cards of destruction.
Apex Legends is available for all current systems.
